Rebuying GTA 5 if banned.

[twas]

Hello, I was banned from GTA 5 Online last year and it looks fun so I plan on rebuying it. I was just wondering if I delete the game from my steam account if I can rebuy it on the same account and I can restart? Thanks

EDIT: Already solved by steam gifting to a different account. Thank you all

Your account has been banned. End of. Feel free to buy the game as many times as you like, it won't get you un-banned.

Tis a shame they don't impose IP bans really...

IP bans are just inefficient, is why they don't do it. Very few game companys use IP bans anymore.

I don't cheat on any game (bBar a few single player games) but, if I were too, IP banning me, would be banning 4 other people, too.

Also, the number of Cafe's, college/university campusses etc.

The only people you don't hurt with IP bns, are the people that cheated. If they know how to get hold of hacks/scripts, they can likely get around an IP ban in under an hour.

You're own medicine

yes you can but you have to buy the rockstar verison you can't re-buy it on steam as you already own it on steam.

Once you get the new rockstar code you can make a new account with your existing steam verison with that new code. And just log onto that account and forget about the old and perma banned one.

Most home automatically have Dynamic IPs too. At least in the UK. If you want a static IP you have to request it, which no one tends too unless they run a server.

No as you'd get the same CD key if you buy it on same account.

It will work fine, just make sure you delete the old game, buy a new version, and wait 2 hours with the game running to unlock your account from being banned.

Rockstar needs to start doing HardwareID not IP bans, to keep those cheaters from commin bak, its alot harder to change an computer than it is an IP address..

The issue with this (And the reason very few companies IP ban at all) is the collateral damage of the ban. If they banned someone in your house, say a sibling or partner (Both?) You would get banned too, just because you share the same machine.
It goes further than just household though, computer cafes, gaming cafes, colleges, univercitys, they'll all be banned out.

This is where your wrong. I can change my hardware ID faster than I can my IP. There is plenty of software on the internet to change your Hardware ID. So NO changing hardware ID does not work. It is just as easy to bypass for those those who are willing.

Nah account banning works, just you can buy another copy of the game for $5....
